Heres what CricBuzz says about him.
And it is no surprise that he more often than not takes the new ball for Windies. He was part of the team that won the World T20 in India in 2016.
The journey to the top, though, was laden with obstacles. Badree's debut in first-class cricket came in the 2001/02 season but he took his time to find his feet and later establish himself in the Trinidad and Tobago line-up.
He raked in the moolah, being a part of the winning Trinidad and Tobago side which bested Middlesex in the Stanford Super Series. However, it was his World T20 league success in 2011 that grabbed eyeballs. Dealing with the new ball, Badree finished third on the economy charts, second only to Sunil Narine and Brett Lee.
His remarkable consistency in the abbreviated format did not go unnoticed as he was selected for West Indies' short T20I tour to USA against New Zealand. Since then Badree has been a crucial cog in the West Indian T20 machinery.
Arguably, Saqlain Mushtaq's influence elevated his powers further. The former Pakistan spinner, who was the initial purveyor of doosra, worked closely with Badree and Narine in his stint as the spin bowling consultant for West Indies.
The champagne moment for the Trinidad and Tobago twirler ensued when he snared 4-15, spinning West Indies to a mammoth win against hosts Bangladesh in the T20 cup. He continued to shine in the T20 Cup, claiming wickets whilst simultaneously applying the brakes on the rival batsmen.
Despite his T20 antics, Badree continues to be overlooked for ODIs and a Test berth remains a touch far on the horizon.
After serving Rajasthan Royals for a brief period, Badree was signed up by Chennai Super Kings for the seventh season of the Indian Premier League. He then later went on to represent Royal Challengers Bangalore, too. He made his presence felt in the inaugural version of the CPL as well.
Badree was unsold at the 2018 IPL auctions.

Heres what ESPNcricinfo says about him.
Samuel Badree may be listed as a legspinner, but he hardly turns the ball. His accuracy though is near impeccable - so much that West Indies have used him to open the bowling in 28 out of 28 T20Is, right up to winning a world championship in India in 2016. He came out of that tournament ranked the No. 1 bowler in the format. Not too many physical education teachers can top that resume, so Badree's position at Barrackpore East Secondary School in Trinidad should be safe.
Badree made his first-class debut in 2001-02 and his List A debut the next season. But by the time he was a two-time world champion in T20s - over a decade into his career - he had played only 12 first-class and 33 List A matches.
His skills in the shortest format, however, were highly rated. He played his first T20 match in 2006 and racked up his 100th game eight years later. And it's helped him travel too. Badree has been a part of three different IPL teams, won the inaugural Pakistan Super League title with Islamabad United, claimed a career-best 5 for 22 in the Big Bash League in 2015-16, mentored young Australian spinners before that stint, and represented his home team Trinidad & Tobago in the Caribbean Premier League
